Skydiving is about managing risk and prioritizing safety, and you will see this in action as soon as you arrive at our facility.
Gone are the days when flinging yourself out of an aircraft was a stunt performed by “crazy” people – and parachuting is quite the opposite of how it is often portrayed. It is normal to be nervous before your jump, but skydiving is a highly accessible and endlessly repeatable sport. Straps, dangly details and velcro are no good, and losing a shoe in the sky is both not cool and permanent. Sneakers are best for your feet, as your shoes need to lace up tight and be enclosed. Remember that wearing the right clothing is important, and sportswear that covers your arms and legs is best. If it is warm on the ground, you might be advised that jumping in your street clothes is fine.
You do have some easy tasks to help everything go smoothly, such as arching your body in freefall to create stability – but these things are covered during the pre-jump briefing, reviewed by your instructor in the aircraft, and prompted at the times when they need to be done.Īir gets colder the higher up you go, and you might be given a jumpsuit to wear. In front is you, who gets to enjoy the ride, soak up this spectacular view of the world, and savor the thrill of freefall. We offer a memorable first time tandem skydive experience For those looking to become skydivers, we have beginner skydiving courses the Accelerated Freefall.

Our team of highly-trained tandem skydive instructors will do all the work after all, they’re the professionals and your job is to have fun. Tandem skydiving means jumping while harnessed together with an instructor – piggy-back style.

The good news is that the dropzone is a cool and interesting place to hang out. Skydiving operations are carefully scheduled to keep the plane flying and as many jumps happening as possible, and while you will have a pretty good idea of when you are due to go up – exact timings can vary a little.įor example, we are very good at studying the jumping conditions – but we do not control the weather and sometimes we have to wait for the wind to drop or clouds to pass by.
